It's hard to figure out a fair price for tech, but it's about as cheap as it's ever been wrt earnings. Look at QQQQ for example.

GOOG's PE is not much above 40. That's not exactly the defn of a value stock but if you think they'll be growing for a while yet, it actually could be a bargain. Just dropped under 500 today.

Isn't that the definition of Intrinsic Value? Much different than the definition of stock price.

I think ADY at 18 is very cheap. I agree that USG is cheap right now too. I'm just bought a small position in TGIS at 8 and am continuing to research it. I there could be some good value there.

(I own ADY and TGIS.)

Nah, half the people trading it have no idea what their current cash flows are much less their future cash flow. It's defined more like the median of what buyers want to pay for it and what sellers want to get for it.
